UW-P students cheer on the baseball team at Milwaukee County Stadium Ranger Hall vandalized, Hall officials ask students to help Spec/alto the Ranger after 4:30 p.m, on weekdays and on week- ends and students must use an access card to enter the building. However, Stone said doors are sometimes propped open ..and people who are not Ranger Hall residents enter the building as part of a group. For that reason, a letter is being sent to residents asking them to more closely monitor the actions of their guests. "1 thiok [hall residents] should be concerned their community is being dam- . aged, because they are the ones who pay for it financially and emotionally," Stone said. UW-Parkside police continue to investigate the destruction. University Police and Public Safety Director Robert Deane said any student having informa- tion about Sundays incident should call 595-2455.

The as-yet unidentified suspects scrawled statements like "love your neighbor" and crude references to drug use and body parts on walls and destroyed two exit signs. Cost of the dam- age was estimated at $600. "We don": have a tremendous prob- lem with vandalism, so when we get it, it is frustrating," Residence Life Director DeAnn Stone told the Kenosha News.

UW-Parkside enrolls biggest crop of new ·freshmen in 11,years Special to the Ranger News The incoming freshmen class at the University of Wisconsin-Parks ide is the largest in II years and repre- sents a nearly 30 percent increase from just- two years ago, according to enrollment figures from the 10th day of classes. . For fall 1998, UW-Parkside enrolled 882 degree-seeking new freshmen, up 7.7 percent from 819 last fall and 29 percent increase from fall 1996. Including new transfer slu- dents, UW-Parkside enrolled 1,282 new degree-seeking students for fall 1998, up from 1,230 last year and a 22 percent boost from fall 1996 levels. It was the largest group of degree-seek- ing students since at least 1985. The crop of new freshmen is the largest since 1988, when 942 new freshmen enrolled. Since 1989, the number of new freshmen remained consistently in the middle to high 700s. Those figures do not include continuing students still classified as freshmen. Over the past 14 years, the 400 new transfer students enrolled for fall 1998 stands .second only to 411 who signed up for fall 1997. The increases can be attributed to more resources devoted to the Admissions Office and a strong mar- keting and advertising plan begun prior to the 1997-98 school year, according to Admissions Director Chuck Murphy. "These numbers reflect a very strong push to boost our recruitment advertising and increase the areas of the state that we recruit in, ., Murphy said. "We've expanded recruitment in Wisconsin, especially the Fox Valley area. We expanded our recruitment in Illinois and the Twin Cities of Minnesota." The amount of money budgeted' in Admissions for travel and recruit- ment expenses has risen from $54,000 prior to 1996-97 to more than $80,000 this year; Murphy said. An admis- sions counselor/recruiter position was added on a temporary basis in fall 1996 and made a permanent part of the staff in fall 1997.· In the past year, the Admissions Office has staffed nearly 300 high school visits, more than 65 college fairs/college nights at high schools, three national college fairs and 20 Wisconsin Education Fairs around the state, Murphy said. Since the summer of 1997, the university has developed a new mar- keting operation and a comprehensive advertising plan to raise its profile locally and make UW-Parkside an attractive option for students living outside southeastern Wisconsin. The new 40 I-bed Ranger Hall, which opened in fall 1997, makes it possible to recruit more out-of-area students, Murphy said. Ranger Hall is full for fall. The University places newspaper ads in communities around the state prior to all of its Wisconsin Education Fairs .. Print ads are also run in key recruitment areas during the fall and spring recruitment periods, Murphy said. In August, UW-Parkside also ran a full-page color ad in zoned edi- tions of U.S. News and World Report's "America's Best Colleges," as well as in Time, Newsweek and Sports Illustrated. The University has alsoaired a series of radio ads in Milwaukee, Racine, Kenosha and northern JIlinois. A cable television spot began running locally in 1998 and a new 30-second commercial will air throughout 1998- 99 on TCI of Racine and Time Warner Cable of Kenosha.
